The State Farmers, Assembly.

The platform adopted by the Farmers
Assembly in session in Richmond yesterday
denounces all legis lation which compeis one
class of people to buy Of another class by
prohibiting the Importation of foreign goods;
demands that the Legislature shall pass
such laws as will prohibit discrimination by

ard require the publication Of their tariff of

pathy with their interest. The last section

does fair price to the consumer of what he
eats and wears, of the very fuel that pro-
tects his family from the frosts OF winter,
involving, also, the continuance OF q system
of taxation that reduces the value of q days
wages one-third by increasing the price OF
that which the necessities Of the consumer
compels him to buy, whilst dlsclaiming any
utilization with extremes, We invoke the as"
sistance and cooperation OF all laborers,
whether in the field, factory or elsewhere,
and ask that such unite with US and make
a common cause against common enemy"

Piles formulated in the platform.
